Stormwater Management
The purpose of the Stormwater Management Program is to prevent stormwater runoff from acting as the vehicle for the discharge of pollutants to surface water bodies.
In compliance with the State Water Resources Control Board's General Permit NO. CAS000004, Stormwater Discharges from Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems, the City of Pismo Beach developed a Stormwater Management Program. Under this program, the City will educate and involve the community in stormwater pollution prevention, regulate stormwater run-off from construction sites, investigate non-stormwater discharges and reduce non-stormwater run-off from municipal operations.
The City of Pismo Beach Stormwater Management Program (SWMP) was approved by the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board on June 5, 2009.
Water Pollution Control Plan (WPCP)
A Water Pollution Control Plan is specified in the minimum BMP's that must be used during the course of the construction project.
In compliance with the State Water Resources Control Board's General Permit No. CAS000004, Storm Water Discharges from Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems, the City of Pismo Beach developed a Stormwater Program Guidance Document. Under this program, the City will educate and involve the community in stormwater pollution prevention, regulate stormwater run-off from construction sites, investigate non-stormwater discharges and reduce non-stormwater run-off from municipal operations.
The City of Pismo Beach Stormwater Guidance Document, dated July 1, 2013, was submitted to the State Water Resources Control Board. You can download and view the City's Stormwater Guidance Document here.
The General Permit requires the City to submit an annual summary that describes the implementation of the PEAIP, summarizing data obtained through effectiveness assessment measures, describes short and long term progress of the stormwater program, and provides an analysis of the data to improve program effectiveness in order to protect water quality.
